I quit roller derby and I miss it. When I left there were hard feelings among some of the other women.
Should I swallow my pride and go back?

BitsandPieces answered Wednesday June 20 2007, 9:27 pm: Yes, pride is a lonely companion and a heavy burden that often teams up with regret. Go back knowing why you should be there and how you want to be perceived. Be friendly and confident and take responsibility for anything you might have done to contribute to the hard feelings. Life is too short to quit what you love. Feelings are temporary and even enemies can choose to become friends over time. There is some Toltec wisdom by Don Miguel Ruiz, a Shaman, in his book, THE FOUR AGREEMENTS. They are thus:
1.Be impeccable with your word...truthful in love.
2.Don't take anything personally.
3.Don't make assumptions.
4.Always do your best.
These sound simple, but are challenging in the real day to day. Meditate on these and you will find a way to get to where you want to be. [ BitsandPieces's advice column | Ask BitsandPieces A Question ]
